Kennedy Space Center

For our first outing in Orlando, we attempted the Kennedy Space Center. We knew the weather forecast was supposed to be cold and windy, so we hoped this option would have mostly indoor exhibits. Unfortunately, many of the exhibits were outside. And, overall, the KSC wasn't too toddler friendly, which made for a somewhat challenging day! Nevertheless, Noah got some great pictures, as Keira and I tried to stay warm indoors!

Freeeeeeezing!!
